slngsht Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w3/CuzzinJack/NewGifs/beastfail.gif :rofl: I guess they'll add that to the checklist. BC's Ann Compton reports: The lead limousine in President Obama’s Ireland motorcade unexceptededly bottomed out coming out of a driveway in Dublin, stalling the motorcade briefly. Local European cameras on the street outside the US Embassy caught the strange scene as puzzled US Secret Service agents emerged from the vehicle to find that the steep slope of the driveway had caught the heavy armored vehicle between its wheels, making it impossible for the car to move forward or back. “Occupants were relocated into other vehicles,” USSS spokesman Robert Novy in Washington told ABC News. President Obama, riding in a second limousine was not affected and the rest of the motorcade left the embassy by a different exit. The Secret Service has not explained how the first limousine was freed from the Dublin driveway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnCh Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 That makes a seriously loud thunk when it runs aground. Sounds and looks like the 7-series bottomed out too. -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds and looks like the 7-series bottomed out too. -John Imagine what was going through the minds of those who were inside the car. You're pulling out into a public road in Ireland with the president of the United States when you hear this loud rumble from the bottom of the car!! I'll bet adrenalin was flowing. You notice how the police outside the car stepped away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHKflyer52 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Here is what they need as seen in another clip. Just kidding but it would not have bottomed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
